“SAA staff is dedicated in providing our customers the best service possible. We have worked hard to ensure this ranking and will implement further improvements. Our position as the leading carrier on the continent is confirmed by the fact that we are still the only carrier on the African continent to have achieved the high level 4-Star airline rating,” says Monwabisi Kalawe, SAA Group CEO.

Edward Plaisted, CEO of Skytrax said: “SAA has both maintained and improved quality levels throughout the past year, and continue to delivering world-class product and service standard to their customers, making their 4-Star ranking well-deserved.

“This 4-Star Ranking demonstrates that South African Airways passengers can look forward to a high quality of product and service. The Skytrax ranking provides an accurate and independent guide for travellers around the world, and the 4-Star Airline status is a most respected category. SAA has been ranked a 4-Star Airline for a number of years, and we are delighted to see them retain this status for 2014.” – ENDS -
